I bought the extended warranty that covers 100,000mi./6years and the wheel/tire warranty. This way, if anything breaks, I don't have to pay a damn cent. If I get a single ding on my wheel, it's going in for warranty. I spent about $1k extra.

I think toyota extended warranties can be negotiated, try first before you spend a grand.

It turned out to be a total of $1k because EVERYTHING is covered down to the wheels and tires. If I get a flat, I get a free tire. If there's a ding on the wheel, I get a new wheel. Any powertrain issues, I pay nothing to get it fixed for 100,000mi./6 years.

Prices might be separate for different models?

They differ based on the time/mileage and deductable (and possibly exclusions). The extended warranty on these is about half that as for a camry. Take that as you will.

I got the 5/60,000 Nothing out of pocket for $600. To me it was actually $300 because they over quoted me on tax as I live in a different county. I thought it was a good deal for so cheap. Now if anything break with the 60,000 I am good to go with nothing out of pocket. To me nice cheap extra insurance.

But does it say what that is? I'm buying mine stock and doing, CAI, Exhaust, possibly Header. and eventually springs probably TRD but I'm not letting my dealing gouge me on the install.

Can they actually say that you can't do any Mods. Or is it if they can prove the mod caused the failure then the warranty is kaputs.

What about Non-Dealer Ex Warranties. This page

has a bunch of places online that sell ex warranties . Anyone go with that? Is it cheaper? Better?
